If a gun store employee or anyone else hands me a gun, EVEN IF THEY DO A SAFETY CHECK, I always do a sfety check , also.
It’s just the way it should be done.
Exactly right. Check for yourself. Do the same thing when driving, YOU look, don’t trust your passenger’s “all clear over here” signal. The one behind the wheel and the one with the gun in his hand are the ones responsible.
Negligent discharge...Cost Officer Fife a finger...
You are spot on...It’s a good habit for safe gun handling...
Every time a gun is handled, start with a chamber and magazine check...
100% correct. If someone passes me a weapon AND I just watched them chamber check....I still CC myself. Old habit. Before I pass a weapon to someone else, I CC and announce clear to whom I am giving it to......and I don’t take it personal if they follow up my CC, (I hope they do), with one of there own. Like you said, just the way it should be done, EVEN with obeying ‘The 4 Rules’.
